All on my phone
Just waiting for you to call me
I need your love

Baby don't stop now
Pick up the pace right now
Why don't we stay for a while
Nothing matters when you hold me
Baby close your eyes
Take off your disguise
Come now don't be shy
Won't you get to know me

Uhuh

You know that I want you (You know that I want you)
Love me love me

You know that I want you now

Babe won't you come a little closer
Let the feeling take over you
Baby don't rush take it slow
We can stay all night
And nobody has to know so

Love me love me (Ah)

Love me love me down
You know that I want you now

And I'm riding with you
And I can scream it to the world that I'm flying with you
Baby
I know them fellas didn't treat you right
But I can show you baby if I have a night
Don't worry baby ain't nobody insight
Loving so good might just spend the night (Yeah)

Everything I do for you
All that I went through with you
When is everything gonna be enough for you

Can you hear me baby?

Love me love me (Love me)
Tell me that you want me (Love me)

Love me love me
Tell me that you want me
Love me love me down
You know that I want you now

And I just don't know how
I let you slip away from me

But ima love you anyway
And it's okay that you don't want to stay
But ima love you anyway
Don't know how we ran out of time
But now we go our separate ways
As long as it makes you okay
Ima love you anyway
As long as you're okay

Love me love me
Tell me that you want me
Love me love me
You know that I want you
Love me love me
Tell me that you love me
Love me love me down
You know that I want you now
